What Does It Take? A Cross‐National Study Exploring Drivers for Willingness to Engage in Effortful Climate Action

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While much is known about what drives general participation in climate action, less is known about the drivers of actions that are explicitly linked to time, resource, or convenience constraints (i.e., effortful climate action). Understanding what drives effortful climate action is important to effectively tackle climate change, as many high ...

Centered egocentric, de-centered egocentric, and allocentric spatial representations in the peripersonal space of congenital total blindness

, 2009
The distinction between different spatial representations in the peripersonal space was examined in two experiments by requiring sighted blindfolded and blind participants to remember the locations of objects haptically explored.

Unnatural Causes: Cryptocurrencies, Carbon Credits, and the rise of Neoliberalism from Below

Economic Anthropology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Klima is a carbon‐backed cryptocurrency running as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). In 2021, it had accumulated 9 million metric tons of digital carbon credits and reached a market value of more than US$1 billion. In 2023, its treasury stored twice as many carbon credits, but its spot price was a tiny fraction compared to 2021 ...

FEWT: Frequency‐Enhanced Wavelet‐Based Transformer for Multimodal Wheeled Bimanual Manipulation

SmartBot, EarlyView.
An embodied mobile bimanual robot learns dexterous manipulation skills through imitation learning with multimodal perception. The integration of vision, proprioception, and tactile sensing establishes a comprehensive perception–action loop, enabling the robot to continuously understand, interact with, and adapt to complex physical environments.

Trustworthy Imagination in Embodied World Models: Structural Constraints, Reality Anchoring, and Trust Adjudication

SmartBot, EarlyView.
World models let robots imagine alternative futures, such as successfully grasping a glass or dropping it, but visual plausibility alone does not establish trustworthiness. Here, the authors review structural constraint, reality anchoring, and trust adjudication as complementary mechanisms for shaping generation, grounding predictions in real evidence,

An Outlook into the Future of Egocentric Vision

International Journal of Computer Vision
Abstract What will the future be? We wonder! In this survey, we explore the gap between current research in egocentric vision and the ever-anticipated future, where wearable computing, with outward facing cameras and digital overlays, is expected to be integrated in our every day lives.

Integration in Qualitatively Oriented Mixed Methods Data Analysis: A Worked Example of a TESOL Graduate's Professional Experiences

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper focuses on integration in the data analysis of a qualitatively oriented mixed methods study, illustrating this process through a worked example of interactions with social actors shaping a TESOL graduate's professional experiences. The paper outlines our analysis of visual and textual data from interviews that employed an embedded ...

Vestibular induced facilitation of egocentric mental transformation

, 2011
The body schema is a key component in accomplishing egocentric mental transformations, which rely on bodily reference frames. These reference frames are based on a plurality of different cognitive and sensory cues among which the vestibular system plays ...

Research on Embodied Intelligence Technology for Electric Power Equipment Based on Large‐Scale Pre‐Trained Models

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the development of electric power artificial intelligence (AI) technology, many complicated challenges emerged during application. Traditional AI algorithms work well in specialised tasks such as detection and classification. However, they are unlikely to solve general problems.
